bersani with the agreement with angela merkel. i don't think mario monti has hidden the fact that he's concerned about the influence, particularly the power of the union on the democratic party. if we look on the german side, the foreign minister said what they want ultimately is a party that's going to continue with the reforms, that's going to continue with the fiscal consolidation. i'm not sure there's anything new here. perhaps an argument, too, where angela merkel is concerned, the power she would least like to see in power is the -- in a few months time. we've talked a lot about politics. i want to get a sense of, too, the voice of the business in terms of what they need to see after this election. and i spoke to the ceo of the largest retail bank here in san paolo and we talked about this idea of reforms and a mandate for change. germany arguably had schroeder. i asked whether perhaps the most influential and important italian doesn't actually sit in this cup, but he sits at the head of the ecb. listen to what was said. >>

in the right direction, but with regard to the decision today, i think if you've been listening to angela merkel to david cameron himself and francois hollande this week, the indication is that perhaps we shouldn't be as optimistic as jean-claude juncker would have us believe, but someone has to fly the flag for europe and we like our posturing in europe. overall, what rewe looking at? germany, the uk, the nordic european countries are fighting for cuts, real term cuts in this whereas italy and france would rather have it held steady. even within that, the battle lines aren't clear. the uk and sweden in particular, trying to protect their all important rebates. we've got italy saying that their contribution overall is too great and, of course, as i just mentioned, france very concerned about the agricultural spending that contributes around 40% of the entire eu budget. so as usual, we get a of comments and a lot of the european leaders come to this working out, just how they can negotiate and is walk away, flying their individual flag and saying, hey, i came out with what i asked. but, yo
